Absolutely my favorite place for sushi when adding together freshness, service, and timeliness. After moving to Massachusetts from Florida, there has barely been any place with real flavor up here. After checking the reviews I saw this place might have some potential for a good price. It’s a small restaurant with a few tables, and the perfect hominess. We wanted to go out somewhere for Valentine’s Day with our baby, not somewhere too crowded considering she’s in her chaotic phase, and we went here. We got a maki party platter for us and a chicken teriyaki for the baby. It’s an adult portion so we decided to have something for her to have lunch and dinner with the next day. The sushi came out and it was so amazing and honestly super fast too. Then came the babies plate, it comes with a miso soup so we were able to get her to try it and she loved that. Then we cut up her food into bite size pieces and as we were preparing it, even though I personally hate chicken, it was SO FLAVORFUL!! We had to keep going back to her plate for tiny bites because it was delicious, the chicken was NOT dry and it felt so clean and refreshing each bite. Then when in regard to the service, WOW the waitress was absolutely the sweetest ever, was so interactive with our baby and attentive to us. Our new regular place for sure.

Hands down favorite spot for take out sushi in town. Condensed menu keeps focus on the sushi but certainly the tempura can hit the spot. We are repeat customers and if you like Sushi so should you.

Really enjoyed this little Japanese spot. Super cozy vibe, friendly staff, and the food was fresh and comforting. Everything tasted homemade and well done, and the portions were just right. Definitely a nice place to grab a relaxed, satisfying meal.

This spot is my Arlington gem. The seafood is fresh and the portion is good. I always order takeout and the food is ready within 20’. I’ve tried another restaurant on Arlington’s top rated list and Umi remains my go-to.

My favorite is the kohaku don. The chirashi bowl and sake bowl are also fantastic. Pictures are takoyaki and sake bowl.

Is this my new favorite sushi place?
Thin ribbon of rice, really fresh tasting salmon and fish and perfectly ripe avocado. Fun creative menu, including the stellar Sandwich maki. Cute window seating area.

Took forever, over 45 minutes after I ordered it, and still waited 20 minutes when I got there.
